TO THE GARDEN LOVERS 
To get the best results from your garden It is necessary to get the best of seeds. The sower 
has no second chance. A good beginning is the only safe rule. 
Every packet of AABLING-BOYCE seed, every bulb, shrub or tree sold by them has behind it 
years of painstaking and successful endeavor in cross-breeding and selection. 
Write us your planting problem. Small places, surburban yards or extensive acreage — where 
there is room for a bit of green or beauty it is worthy of our attention and we will gladly give 
you advice thereon. 
We wish to thank our many patrons for the compliment which we feel their long and con- 
tinued patronage is to us and we shall strive, as in the past, by honest endeavor and integrity 
of purpose, to merit the trust thus given us. 
AS TO WARRANTY. We believe our seeds will produce for you the best crops you have 
ever grown, but it must be agreed that we do not warrant crops grown therefrom, either 
expressed or implied, as to description, purity, productiveness or any other matter, and we will 
not be in any way responsible for them. If the purchaser does not accept our seeds, etc., on 
these terms they are at once to be returned and the money that has been paid for the same will be 
refunded. We appreciate your orders and they receive our prompt attention. 
BE SURE TO GIVE NAME AND ADDRESS and state whether goods must be shipped by 
boat or railroad, and if transportation charges must be prepaid, kindly add same to the amount 
of your order to prevent delay.

been saved with great care. You will be pleased with the crops and satisfied with our prices.

“WE ARE ADVERTISED BY OUR LOVING FRIENDS,” says a big advertiser, and we feel 
that this is equally true of us. The users of our seeds are enthusiastic in their endorsement and 
generously give us large credit for their success in gardening. 
MARKET GARDENERS, FARMERS’ CLUBS AND INSTITUTIONS wanting to purchase 
seeds in unusually large quantities should write for special prices. We have made prices very 
low in this Catalog, yet when a number of pounds are wanted we can frequently supply at lower 
prices than by the single pound. In writing give us a list of quantities and varieties 
required and we will return list promptly with our lowest price for the lot. 
ALWAYS REMEMBER THAT WE CAN SAVE YOU MONEY, NO MATTER WHERE YOU 
LIVE. Write us about any seed you would like to know of, and your letter will be answered 
the same day it is received. If you wish to know exactly what the freight or express would be 
on any article to your station, write us and we wiil tell you. 
TESTED SEED 
PLANT SEEDS THAT GROW— IT PAYS 
Buy our tested seeds, which are perfect in quality and of exceptional productiveness. 
The initial cost of the seeds is really the smallest cost of your garden and it pays to be sure 
you are started right. In order that you may have this assurance when you plant our seeds, we 
not only test them in our thoroughly equipped tester, but have also the finest testing grounds in 
the West in which all seeds we offer for sale are tested in order that we may be sure that they 
are true to name and also as a further test of germination. We consider no expense or trouble 
too great that will insure you against possible failure from poor seed. 
If you want a distinctive lawn or flower garden, or a successful vegetable garden, let us fur- 
nish you with seeds of perfect quality. 
IT WILL GIVE GARDENING A NEW ZEST.
